Not to spread hate, but thats the reason why Jews are associated with money.

Not to spread hate, but thats the reason why Jews are associated with money. | The reason why Jews are commonly stereotyped to love money is because 2,000 years ago, Christians leaders who hated Jews, put them into banking as back then, banking was a great sin, and they did not allow Jews to own farm lands. So if a person tries to stereotype a Jew about money, let them know its their fault for why Jews are associated to dealing with money. | image tagged in fun facts with squidward,jews,money,christianity,antisemitism | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Actually early Christianity forbid charging usury (interest) so Christians wouldn't loan money. The jews didn't have that policy so they loaned and did the banking thing. The hatred of jews had more to do with paying off loans than the jews hand in killing Jesus

Jews killing Jesus is very debatable, as people say Jesus was a Jew, and a lot say the Roman's killed Jesus. But other than that you are morbidly correct

Usury was forbidden in the Old Testament. For Jews.
However, the prohibition made an exemption when it came to foreigners, so....

A lot do not say the Romans killed Jesus, Christian scripture does.

Read the book and stop disseminating anti-Semitic propaganda.

Actually the Old Testament forbids usury... for Jews. That's where the prohibition came from. However, it did not apply to foreigners, so therefore Jews had no problem charging interest to non-Jews, and that's how that practice began in Europe.

The hands used in killing Jesus were all Roman.
